Season 4 Episode 7Hi P-Soupers, thanks for tuning in – this week it’s another cup-a-soup called Thanks for Asking. I want to build upon last week’s episode - GETTING CURIOUS - where I suggested one way we could ask colleagues about their experience of work - so in this episode - I’m going to answer that very same question based upon my personal experience. My suggested conversation openers were:“I’m curious how you experience this workplace, would you be willing to share?”OR“What’s it like to be you in this workplace?”Shownotes at www.rossmcintosh.co.ukConnect with Ross and the ShowTwitter https://twitter.com/PeopleSoupPodhttps://twitter.com/RossMcCOACHInstagram https://www.instagram.com/people.soup/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/peoplesouppod/LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/ross-mcintosh-261a2a22/Linktree - for links to many other podcast platforms and apps - linktr.ee/PeopleSoupAnd you can support the podcast by buying me a coffee! https://ko-fi.com/peoplesoup

Season 4 Episode 6P-Soupers – thanks for tuning in –this week it’s another cup a soup with me called 'Getting Curious' - I want to build upon last week’s episode - perspectacles - and really consider how we can get curious about how other people experience the workplace. As I said in perspectacles - we’re can’t hear each other’s internal soundtracks - we don’t know our colleagues work song - and I’m going to draw upon evidence from psychologist, Sarah Bonner and an organisation called Blueprint for All.Shownotes at www.rossmcintosh.co.ukThere are great resources at - www.blueprintforall.orgTwitter https://twitter.com/PeopleSoupPodhttps://twitter.com/RossMcCOACHInstagram https://www.instagram.com/people.soup/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/peoplesouppod/LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/ross-mcintosh-261a2a22/Linktree - for links to many other podcast platforms and apps - linktr.ee/PeopleSoupAnd you can support the podcast by buying me a coffee! https://ko-fi.com/peoplesoup

Season 4 Episode 5P-Soupers, thanks for tuning in. This week it’s a cup-a-soup with me. I want to talk to you about perspective taking and how that relates to the world between our ears - if you could just try on these perspectacles please and read the bottom line of the chart....I’m going to be having a go at exercising my creativity - experimenting with ways to illustrate my point, which is, that we all live inside our heads - and often - we can assume other people are in their with us - think like us and really ‘get us’. In my work and life I constantly marvel that workplaces can function, relationships can happen and agreements can be made, because I reckon we can spend a lot of time just assuming that people are thinking just like us. And what’s going on in someone else’s head - can shape how they look at and experience the world and how they show up. And the same applies to us. I combine my thinking with a great exercise from a recent guest - Diana Hill.Shownotes at www.rossmcintosh.co.ukConnect with Ross and the ShowTwitter https://twitter.com/PeopleSoupPodhttps://twitter.com/RossMcCOACHInstagram https://www.instagram.com/people.soup/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/peoplesouppod/LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/ross-mcintosh-261a2a22/Linktree - for links to many other podcast platforms and apps - linktr.ee/PeopleSoupAnd you can support the podcast by buying me a coffee! https://ko-fi.com/peoplesoup

Season 3 Episode 45 Hi P-Soupers - we're at the end of Season three and I'd like to share two lists and two quotes. It isn't always easy looking back at stuff we've done - and we tend to focus on the mistakes and cringe-worthy moments. I also reflect on the people I've lost over Season 3 - which started way back in July 2019. Season 4 will be with you before you know it P-Soupers - watch this space.

Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 3 Episode 44 of People Soup. P-Soupers, thanks for tuning in. This week, it’s part 2 of my interview on the Maintain the Design podcast. Yip – you can hear me in the hot-seat. So this episode is a bit different, you’ll hear me being interviewed by Thato Mathebula and G-Man from the Maintain the Design podcast based in Johannesberg. I was really chuffed to be asked by the guys, their podcast is about creative culture and lifestyle in various industries and niches such as business, art, music and fashion . They say “Not being limited in our topics of conversation is our vibe!” I really really like their approach and in this part we chat about anxiety, creating the conditions to maximise the possibility of tangible results from workplace training, creativity and loads more.
